Summary

The UI / UX Developer is a highly visible, front-office–embedded role responsible for creating intuitive, high-quality interfaces used by portfolio managers, analysts, quants, and researchers. The role requires exceptional design instincts and strong front-end development skills, as well as the ability to simplify complex quantitative and data-driven workflows into clear, usable experiences.

Success in this role requires frequent in-person interaction with investment teams, rapid prototyping, and tight integration with backend analytics delivered by Quant Developers and Data Engineers. This individual will play a foundational role in shaping how users interact with research content, automated insights, pricing analytics, and portfolio workflows.

Responsibilities

  • Work directly with on-desk investment and research teams to gather requirements, understand workflows, and identify usability pain points.
  • Design and build modern, responsive front-end interfaces for research portals, analytics dashboards, tagging systems, and AI-assisted insight tools.
  • Rapidly prototype concepts, conduct iterative user testing, and refine designs based on continuous stakeholder feedback.
  • Collaborate closely with Quant Developers and Data Engineers to integrate model outputs, data sets, and real-time analytics into intuitive visual experiences.
  • Ensure high standards of usability, clarity, visual hierarchy, and frontend performance across all user interfaces.
  • Translate ambiguous or evolving user requirements into actionable interface designs that mature over time.
  • Contribute to establishing design patterns, UI standards, and UX workflows as the product expands.

Requirements

  • 5–10 years of combined UI / UX design and front-end engineering experience.
  • Strong JavaScript development skills; React or similar modern frameworks preferred.
  • Demonstrated ability to create polished design artifacts using Figma or comparable tools.
  • Ability to work directly on the trading or research desk, absorbing feedback quickly and interacting with high-intensity front-office users.
  • Strong communication skills with the ability to translate complex quantitative or data concepts into simple, intuitive user interfaces.
  • Experience in financial services or investment technology is a strong plus, particularly in environments where speed, clarity, and precision are critical.
  • Comfort working in fast-moving, high-ambiguity environments where requirements evolve through direct stakeholder engagement.
